Right? We aren't enlightened sages just because the platform we use is a little bit harder to understand. We need more than just people with technical skills, and if there's this many people agreeing with calling others the "brainless masses", seems like people skills are on short supply.

seems like people skills are on short supply.

Not horrendously uncommon in these kinds of spaces, for one reason or another. The Fediverse definitely isn't at this point, but there is a point at which it's not that 'normies' don't understand you or are too dumb to talk about the things you're interested in, but rather, that they understand you perfectly, and think that you're an asshole.
